Abstract: (1016 Views)
Background:
Genu valgum deformity is defined as lateral displacement of lower extremity mechanical axis in knee joint. This can be corrected by medial or lateral distal femoral approach. In this study the effectiveness of distal femoral osteotomy in medial and lateral approach is evaluated by the Knee Society Score and alterations in mechanical axis before and after osteotomy.
